Question

what is the difference between displacement and double displacement reaction?give suitable chemical equations for the same​

Answer 1

Answer:

Displacement reactions occur in the presence of a reactive chemical species. A very reactive chemical species can replace an anion or a cation of a compound. This displacement occurs according to the reactivity series. The reactivity series is a list of elements that shows the order of the reactivity of those elements from most reactive elements to the least reactive elements. Therefore, it gives an idea about the capability of an element to displace another element. This displacement can occur as a single displacement or a double displacement. The main difference between displacement and double displacement reaction is that in displacement reaction, a single chemical species is replaced whereas, in double displacement reactions, two chemical species are replaced.
